Okay you hosers, so this is how things add up:
Category: Beer
SAINT: None of ‘em. But who cares, hoser! Beer’s worth sinning for!
Price: Who cares. It’s beer!
Quality: Canadian beer is awesome, hosehead!
SINNER: Molsom, Canadian, Labatts, Pilsner, Big Rock, Heinekin, Colt 45, Kokanee, Guinness, Budweiser, Whistler, Nelson, Richards, Philips, Old Milwaukee, Alberta Grown, Hey hoser, look at all of this beer. Canucks really do like beer! Sleemans, Miller, Bowen Island, Wildcat, Coors, Ironhorse, Shaftesbury, Granville Island, Braham, Corona, Moosehead, and so on... Hey hoser, why are you still reading. Like we said...All of ‘em are SINNERs. But who cares. Beer's worth sinning for!
Lessons learned:
- A promise is a like promise, eh. When EnviroWoman wrote about lipstick she told all the guys she’d make it up to them and write about a TestosteroneTopic…like hockey pucks. So she wrote about beer! And hosehead….she doesn’t even drink beer! Or watch hockey. So takeoff!
- Hey hoser, some things are worth sinning for. Like beer, and chocolate...and maybe even hockey pucks.
And now here’s a little CanadianCulture chaser for that beer. Bob and Doug Mackenzie, pictured above (aka Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas) were two fictional beer swilling hosehead brothers who personified the ‘typical Canadian, eh’. Their song The Great White North was popularized on SCTV, a Canuck comedy show that ran in the late 70s and early 80s which also launched the careers of John Candy, Martin Short, Eugene Levy and more…

Dear EnviroWoman,
If you would like to offer some plastic-free beer to your brother, you can perhaps serve one bottled with cork. There are some beers--alas, only Belgian that I've seen--that use cork instead of plastic-lined tin caps. They are more expensive, but they are stronger. I also find them tastier.
Hey Envirowoman--no need to sin, just be social! Go to the pub and order what's on TAP. From the keg to your glass, with no plastic middle-man, just the hose...er.

There is indeed bottled-with-corks beer available in Vancouver. Personally I like Ephemere by Unibroue. It's kind of champagne-y actually. The rest of their beers are all really strong. Like 9% strong. And $5.50 or so for a 750 ml bottle is pretty tolerable to me.
...or you could take a large jar down to your local microbrewery or pub and have them fill it!
lots of micros also have refillable containers available, like the "growlers" in my neck of the woods: http://bbc.bloomington.com/whatsbrewing/index.html
i like beer.
Envirowoman, I tagged you to share 7 random facts about yourself.I don't know if you do memes, but in any case, here it is. Oh, and I also gave you a thinking blog award a while back. You make me think ;)
We homebrew using antique bottles with porcelain caps and rubber rings, and I was thinking that would be the solution to the problem, but the airlock and siphon hose we use in the process are plastic. An alternative could be found for the hose, but I'm not so sure about the airlock....
Yay for Bob and Doug MacKenzie! You rock Envirowoman!! My brother and I used to laugh all the way to the cottage listening to that old school cd!!
Hi there,
Very interesting blog! A while back I started brewing my own traditional english ale, I have really started getting into it and now actually sell my wine to friends and family. I wanted to add that extra touch to my beer so I designed my own beer labels and had them printed by a british labels company who did a excellent job. It has made my beer bottles look really great!
